The Stratford production, which
closed on Nov. 6, received glowing
reviews across the board. The Globe
and Mail said, "This production is
an absolute miracle," while the
Toronto Star called it "the best show
you'll see this year." "A sparkling
production literally pulsing with

Iluron County babies.
King says the word PURPLE is an
acronym, which describes to new par-
ents in an easy to remember way all of
the characteristics of normal infant
crying. She says it also is a reminder to
parents that this period of increased
crying doesn't go on forever. The let-
ters in PURPLE stand for:
Peak of crying - The baby may cry
more each week, peaking at two
months, and then Tess at three to five
months.
Unexpected - The crying can come
and go, with no explanation.
Resists soothing - The baby might not
stop crying no matter what you try.
Pain -like face - 1t may look like the
baby is in pain, even when they are not.
Long lasting - 'the baby might cry 5
hours per day or more.
Evening - The baby might cry more
in the late afternoon or evening.
